Qmailadmin is going to provide us with a nice web based interface for administering mail accounts once they are setup through Vpopmail (or Vqadmin). From Qmailadmin we can create mailboxes, aliases, fowards, mail robots, mailing lists. You'll also find a few other handy functions as well. Qmailadmin is sort of the icing on the Qmail cake. Let's install it... |
cd /downloads/qmailrocks
gunzip qmailadmin-1.2.3.tar.gz
tar xvf qmailadmin-1.2.3.tar
cd qmailadmin-1.2.3
./configure --enable-cgibindir=/path/to/your/cgi-bin --enable-htmldir=/path/to/your/html/directory
(Example: ./configure --enable-cgibindir=/usr/local/apache2/cgi-bin --enable-htmldir=/usr/local/apache2/htdocs)
make && make install-strip
That's it! Now browse to http://www.yourdomain.com/cgi-bin/qmailadmin and you should see the login screen. Login with the postmaster account and password for the domain that you created a while back using Vqadmin. Pretty cool, isn't it? Go ahead and create some additional mailboxes for your domain(s).
If you didn't get any errors, Qmailadmin should be all set!
note: if it's late and you're looking for a place to stop so you can sleep, this is a good place. Sendmail should still be handling mail on the server. After this page it's Qmail or bust!
